Colorado territorial governor John Evans founded the University of Denver in 1864, making it the oldest independent institution of higher education in the Rocky Mountain region. The Sturm College of Law opened its doors in 1892, pioneering legal education on America's frontier and graduating many of the attorneys and judges who built the legal structure of America's Mountain West. Independence, ingenuity, and excellence remain guiding principles at the Sturm College of Law and at the larger University of Denver, which also includes top graduate schools in business, international studies, social work, and other fields.
